Hans de Goede 8b09f44b80 gpiolib: acpi: Add gpiolib_acpi_run_edge_events_on_boot option and blacklist
commit 61f7f7c8f978b1c0d80e43c83b7d110ca0496eb4 upstream.

Another day; another DSDT bug we need to workaround...

Since commit ca876c7483b6 ("gpiolib-acpi: make sure we trigger edge events
at least once on boot") we call _AEI edge handlers at boot.

In some rare cases this causes problems. One example of this is the Minix
Neo Z83-4 mini PC, this device has a clear DSDT bug where it has some copy
and pasted code for dealing with Micro USB-B connector host/device role
switching, while the mini PC does not even have a micro-USB connector.
This code, which should not be there, messes with the DDC data pin from
the HDMI connector (switching it to GPIO mode) breaking HDMI support.

To avoid problems like this, this commit adds a new
gpiolib_acpi.run_edge_events_on_boot kernel commandline option, which
allows disabling the running of _AEI edge event handlers at boot.

The default value is -1/auto which uses a DMI based blacklist, the initial
version of this blacklist contains the Neo Z83-4 fixing the HDMI breakage.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
